“Experimentation with an Expert Generalist” with Gv Freeman
This podcast features Govind Dass (Gv) Freeman, a technical whiz, business consultant and expert generalist who provides founders, entrepreneurs, and executives clarity and a non-judgemental mirror for navigating the path toward lasting success and happiness. We discuss the struggle of forgetting and continually coming back to remembering we are enough in this world, and looking at the deep beliefs that when shattered, can break open the door to purpose and fulfillment. Gv gets REAL with us, discussing his path from substance abuse and trauma to a life where he now leads people through difficult challenges, doing their own DEEP work, and dancing in consciousness experiences in a loving and supported way. Through Gv’s matter-of-fact and approachable personality, we get to journey with him from an existence of feeling broken to being bold.

For Gv, who is a dedicated Yogi, accepting the gift of his name (Gv is short for Govind Dass, a gift from his teacher Ram Dass) serves as an ever-present reminder that while we can never go back and make a brand-new start, we can start now and change our ending.
